Welcome to Engineering Design, At UMD-MIE we say:

1. Welcome to Engineering Design, At UMD-MIE we say: • “Student teams use design and analysis methods learned in previous courses to develop, design or improve an industrial system problem. These ‘design problems’ are, generally, drawn from ‘real-world’ system problems existing in industrial organization in the region.” • We consider that design is a customer-centric process that will lead to mutually beneficial outcomes • It is truly a process so we start with a clear problem analysis and then propose and pursue a final design in hardware, software, and/or system improvement

2. Function to form Phases of design Product realization process Roles for engineers Concurrent engineering Teamwork Summary Welcome to Engineering Design

3. Engineering Design

4. A. Given that the customer wishes to fasten together two steel plates, select appropriate sizes for the bolt, nut and washer. B. Given the cross-section geometry of a new airplane wing we determine the lift it produces by conducting wind tunnel experiments. Design Analysis Form is the solution to a design problem. What is Design, really? Which of the following is design and which is analysis?

5. Form Ever Follows Function. control hold move protect store  Function Design decision making processes shape configuration size materials manufacturing processes Form How are Function and Form related Form Ever Follows Function Luis Sullivan

6. Design – definition Set of decision making processesand activities to determine the form of an object, given the customer’s desired function.

7. Establish functional requirements Determine constraints Set performance targets Formulating Problem Design specifications Create alternative forms (shape, configuration, size, materials, manufacturing processes) Generating Alternatives Redesign iteration all alternatives Analyzing Alternatives feasible alternatives Evaluating Alternatives best alternative design candidate Manufacturing specifications Making Decisions? Use the design process

8. Are there “phases” of design? How do design decisions change over time? Is there a logical grouping of decisions?

9. Example design problem - Stop a spinning shaft (8 inch diameter, 1000 lbs, steel, 3000 rpm) Early in the design process, we decide upon the specifics of the function to be performed: • Decide upon a satisfactory rate of deceleration • Determine the length of the shaft • Determine where it is supported • Determine what actuating energy is available • Decide to reverse engineer an existing product • Choose to research brakes in the library “Formulation” Phase

10. Decisions relating to concept? Decidephysical principles that will perform the function • 1. surface friction (e.g. drum brake, disk/caliper) • 2. opposing magnetic fields (e.g. inverse motor) • 3. air friction (e.g. fan blades) • Assume we decide on surface friction “Concept Design Phase”

11. Decisions on configuring products and new components? Decide upon product components & how they are arranged Decide upon partfeatures & how they are arranged Product configuration: disk/caliper, or drum, or band brake location on shaft (right. left, middle) (Assume we decide on a disk/caliper brake) Part configuration: relative size of hub to disk relative size of rotor thickness to diameter “Configuration Design” Phase

12. Values for Parameters? Decide upon specific values for design variables 1. rotor diameter (outer) 2. rotor thickness 3. brake pad width 4. pad material 5. hydraulic pressure on piston “Parametric Design” Phase

13. Completing the details Decide upon the remaining manufacturing specifications • machined rotor tolerances • pad bonding resin • assembly/testing procedure “Detail Design” Phase

14. Final “Form” is the solution to a design problem • Form • rotor: 10 inch diameter, CG Cast Iron, 3/8-inch thick, cooling passages • forged steel caliper/housing • brake pads, 2 opposing, 4 sq. in., metal particles/epoxy matrix • steel piston,1-inch diameter, with elastomeric seals • 100 psi hydraulic piston pressure Function ---- stop a spinning shaft

15. Design Phases Formulation Concept Preliminary Design Configuration Embodiment Design Parametric Detail

16. Realized Product Product Develpoment Disposal Production Design Service Engineering Design Distribution Industrial Design Manufacturing (Production) Sales / Marketing Customer Need Design versus the Product Realization Process?

17. establish function determine form Design fabricate assemble distribute Manufacture set up operate maintain repair Use take down disassemble recycle dispose Retire Phases in the life of a product To satisfy the consumer… We must consider all the phases in the life of a product

18. Product realization begins the ProductLife Cycle Introduction Growth Maturity Saturation Decline Income Sales Time Investment Product Development

19. How do we, as engineers, fit into the PRP? ?

20. Where do engineers work? Employer Thousands % Manufacturing 732 50 Engineering Services 401 27 Government (Federal, State & Local) 179 12 Self-employed 43 3 Other 110 8 Total 1465 100   (U.S. Department of Labor, 2000).

25. Teamwork is a professional team sport!

26. Summary • Design is “decision” making • Product realization process includes engineering design • Design process requires formulating, generating, analyzing, evaluating, refining • Form follows function • Product realization is a professionalteam sport
